Use our careers lesson plans for KS4 and KS5 pupils to help them explore their skills and their options.

Exploring careers: lesson plan

This lesson aims to encourage students to start exploring different careers, encourage consideration of the different routes into careers and expand students’ thinking by providing exposure to a range of different careers.

The lesson plan is designed for year 12 and 13 students, or year 10 and 11 students who intend to progress on to A level, Scottish Highers or the IB. It’s designed to encourage independent learning via the TARGETcareers website, though we have also provided a sheet of additional resources (below) for students who’d like a bit of extra help.
